Copper Twist Container Arrangement

Bring out the copper color in your container with this arrangement. Start with two (2) Diascia, in the centre of your Planter and the other off to the side. On the other side plant your Supertunia in Magenta and behind that your Toffee Twist Sedge and Euphorbia. Then in the front of your Planter, finish off with Silver Plectranthus. There you have it, another wonderful looking garden pot for the deck, patio or balcony.

Garden Planters for Last Minute Make Over

Are you having a party or just a get together for lunch? Spruce up your entrance or patio with garden pots and garden planters. Add a splash of color from annuals that will catch the eye or place your containers where there is a bare spot in your garden. This only takes a few minutes and your home and garden look great when people arrive.

Container Rooftop Gardening

There is nothing like seeing the city landscape through pots and containers on your rooftop planted with small shrubs, grasses and flowers. Be sure to consider lightweight planters and soilless potting mixes with moisture retention gel to make them easy to move. Perhaps even place your planters and pots on feet to prevent water from sitting underneath.

Traditional Container Combination

This combination works well for those over-wintered Geraniums that you want to get out into your garden planters and containers. Plant the Soft Rush Juncus grass or similar foliage grass in the center of your pot, surround with three of those leftover Geraniums and then finish off with another three Sky Blue Lobelia. Very traditional and always looks great.

Add Garden Focal Points

When you have an abundant mixed border of plants, perhaps there is so much to look at that the whole scene blends into the background. One way to create interest is to add a focal point. Perhaps a large garden urn with a burst of Spring colors, or a garden planter or container peeping out from the foliage.

Lavender Planter

Lavender and herbs make a wonderful planter combination. Be sure to place this pot or container near a window, or a seating area to take advantage of the wonderful scent that emanates from the lavender. Use a compact variety of lavender and surround with herbs such a thyme or oregano.

Lighten Up Your Container Combinations

Do you just want that light and airy feeling with your garden planter, pot and container combinations; think about the use of white and green. They give a restful look to your container garden, pot up and place beside those bold color planters that would otherwise dominate an area.
